    Garmin 530 HCx

    Hello all,

    Have a Garmin 530 HCx that I am looking for some assistance with resolving a technical problem.

    During normal use, across the top of the screen there are several icons. One of which is the battery status indicator. When the Lithium Ion battery is used, I get the icon for when the battery is being charged. When the unit is turned off I got the icon for amount of battery life that floats around the screen.

    I have contacted Garmin and updated to the latest software version. No change in the battery status described above. The 530 series is at the end of manufacture support so assistance from Garmin will not happen.

    Other than the batttery icon not showing correctly the unit function as it should.

    Any suggestions on how to resolve this battery issue?

    foto's of the pcb near the charger socket would be a good start.

      Dell E6400 PT434 type Battery Charging Stuck at 1%. Battery Pinouts?
      by Bowline
      My question pertains to understanding the control circuity inside a Dell PT434 type battery used in Dell E6400, E6410 and other Dell notebooks?

      Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the inside of a Dell PT434 battery and/or a description of how the control lines work to control this battery?

      My reason for asking is I have a battery which I cannot get to charge beyond 1% in a Dell E6410 or E6400.
      The LED bar graph charge indicator on the battery shows one LED lighted when the info button is pressed.
      I have tried multiple different Dell power adapters. My Dell...

      ASUS X571 no power : battery issue?
      by mkdj
      Hello everyone,

      Mark and model: ASUS X571
      Symptoms: not turning on. There is only the LED battery indicator working. The owner of the laptop told me this problem arrived one week after having changed the battery. He then managed to power on the laptop only once, and then it never powered on again.

      Tests already made:
      - Battery is charging when laptop is plugged in. The LED battery indicator turns white after a couple of hours of charge, indicating that battery is fully charged. However, laptop won't turn on anyway, with or without AC plug.
      - I have removed...

      Vostro 3400 (LA-K033P) won't charge battery, everything else ok
      by techfreak9356
      I bought a Vostro 3400 motherboard (LA-K033P) to upgrade over my damaged Inspiron 5593 (LA-J091P) board. Everything else is ok except for the battery. This battery I am using now is already a replacement one since I disposed of the bloated original one. Back in the Inspiron 5593 motherboard, the battery charges fine and is identified just fine. However, with the upgraded motherboard, suddenly the replacement battery is labeled as "Not a dell battery". When I borrow a similar battery from my colleague (which did not have replacements yet), it is identified and charges just fine.

      APC BR1000G battery backup has a weird issue sometimes a bad battery icon and making a weird sound for about 30 seconds
      by sam_sam_sam
      This started a few days ago and does this about every 8 hours

      After it does this it goes back to normal no bad battery icon and no weird sounds and it goes to battery backup mode so I am not sure what is going on with this battery backup

      The battery backup is about 3 or 4 years old

      Dose anyone have any idea on how to troubleshoot this issue I have never had a battery backup do this kind-a thing before so I am not sure exactly how to troubleshoot it and where to start

      ISL88739AHRZ ISL88739 Laptop Battery Charger Datasheet
      by Document Archive
      The ISL88739 & ISL88739AHRZ are a highly versatile combo battery charger
      configurable for operating as either a Hybrid Power Boost (HPB)
      charger or a Narrow VDC (NVDC) charger, supporting 2-, 3-, or
      4-cell batteries. Both configurations allow the battery to work with
      the adapter together to supply the system load when it exceeds
      the adapter capability, referred to as system Turbo mode. HPB
      charger configuration reverse-boosts battery energy to the system
      bus to help the adapter provide the system power in Turbo mode.
      NVDC charger configuration...
